Cheaper Than a Funeral

This report about bodies being found in the bayous around Houston state there is no serial killer involved. I can understand the reasoning. Houston is large, the bayous/drainage canals, are many, and the cost of a funeral is way beyond what people want to spend on someone that may only be an acquaintance, or as broke as they are. It's a sign of the times. The bodies will be treated with respect, and cremated after an autopsy. That, and without any sign of criminal violence, an investigation will be short.

  1. Wow. We're broke. Let's throw grandma in the ditch like an old mattress.
    Soylent Green, anyone?

    1. I doubt it's grandma. More than likely, it's some of the homeless that have no resources, are addicted, or woefully ignorant of how to deal with a death. It's sad, and it's an indicator of the ills of society in large cities.
